Pass Checker enables guests to enter their card number (passmedia# or RFID#) to check if their media will work at a specific lift. Among many use cases, guests can check if their pass is hotlisted due to incomplete tasks or if their pass is blacked out for the selected date.

Detailed Setup Guide
This section describes all required steps to set up the feature after prerequisite tasks have been completed.
1. Input Default Pass Checker POS Location ID
The Pass Checker POS Location ID is a setting from RTP|One, and can be sourced from your RTP|One administrator, (RTP|One/ Access Control Admin / Access Control Management / Access Location). This setting serves as a default lift or access point that passes will be validated against in the instance that additional “accesslocations” are not defined.
Go to the General tab and add and enter RTP’s Location ID numeric value in the Pass Checker POS Location ID field, and click the UPDATE GENERAL SETTINGS button.
2. Create “AccessLocations” Mappings (Required)
AccessLocation mappings are required to display Mappings specific lift names to the guest.
Go to Collections and select “AccessLocations”
Assign Items to the Collection by selecting the Collection (click in check box). This will launch the ADD NEW COLLECTION ITEM window.
When the Add New Collection Item window appears, populate the fields as shown. The Name field is customer facing and should be easily recognizable to a resort guest. Avoid jargon or internal names like LIFT 4 or POMA. Instead, use a name that a guest will recognize, like TRAM, or BEGINNER LIFT. The Value is the RTP Access Location Code. Ask your RTP System Administrator for these codes. Save entry by clicking ADD COLLECTION ITEM.
If necessary, you can edit your collection item by selecting it (check box), then clicking UPDATE COLLECTION ITEM. You can also delete using this same steps.
3) Create PassChecker Hotlist Reason” Collection (optional)
If you would like to hide RTP Hotlist reasons with more appropriate customer-facing language, follow the procedure above to create a new collection, naming it “Pass Checker - Hotlist Reason”.
Assign Items to the Collection by selecting the Collection (click in check box). This will launch the ADD NEW COLLECTION ITEM window.
4) Create Pass Checker HotList Reason display mappings (optional)
Follow the same process to add Collection Items to “Pass Checker-Hot List Reasons” if necessary.
5) Update Pass Checker Language Strings (optional)
Logged in as admin, click on the LANGUAGE Tab on the admin toolbar. Scroll down to Pass Checker, and click on it to expand entries.
All entries have default copy supplied, so you do not have to edit if you choose not to. Note that the entry entitled “Invalid Media Error Text” includes a spaceholder for a phone number, which must be customized by the resort.
